yo

my life pretty much sucks right now. it's christmas! why am i rotting inside the house with the internet! i think this is too sad, to actually spend everyday of my christmas break online, like my social life suddenly died on me right when i need it the most.

there's nothing quite special to look forward to this christmas aside from the usual family reunion. other than that, i guess i have next year to count for more surprises. i wanted to go out to the mall, but i don't really have business there aside from wanting to eat at yoshinoya (which isn't as valid either). >__>;

before my mom broke my fantasies, i was looking forward to vacationing at bicol where my lola is. i BADLY wanted to go there because i'm getting sick of urban living, i want to see my lola, my uncles, see the Mayon volcano, splurge at DJC, walk by the seashore, pick up shells... blah. T__T; but you see, mom told us we might not be going there after all. >__>; sucks.

hey. finally, i've found a sleeping pill that is being sold without prescription. it's called Sleepasil and costs around 12 pesos/capsule. :) hehe nothing, really. just in case you're a recovering insomniac like me, you might find this useful.

woa. our neighbor literally took care of our pang media-noche! awhile ago, after cooking lunch, they delivered us a bowl of menudo, a bowl of something nice (i don't know what it's called), and a plateful of fried chicken. amazing. XP and seconds after, they came back with a tray (yaaaah! like 15x10 inches big) of buko salad.

haaaay, i so love our neighbors! XD haha

email entry #1

let's see how this works. apparently i can't insert html codes here (have tried and failed)... hm, but i can put images according to blogger! :) keewl

i. maid-less day #1 -  i can live without a maid you know. i just want to tell you how i love our current maid right now (the one who went on vacation). she's so caring, she wouldn't leave us until after lunch to make sure that we've eaten and the dishes are washed. lol. actually, whenever we don't have a maid around, we don't cook a lot and eat on the dining table, hahaha, instead we eat on the table outside near the dirty kitchen so cleaning up would be a breeze. lol it's christmas and she wouldn't even accept gifts, i was planning on giving her a jacket but when i learned she already rejected a jacket my mom gave...i didn't buy anymore. nyahaha hope she stays with us forever. XP

ii. yey. i thought i'm going to be phone-less this christmas because my charger broke 2 nights ago. i was just charging my phone and when i came to get it, i pulled out the charger via the chord (my mistake) then it broke into half, spilling out the insides. T____________T;;

it was funny actually, it was not the first time i saw a charger's internal organs but hey, it's the first time i actually got to recognize the parts (credits to physics13)! i saw 2 transistors and a circuit board with labels (like R1, R2, R3 blah blah) and i immediately recognized those R's as the resistance values. LMAO. and voltage source is connected to the 2 metal thingies you plug in a socket. it's too geeky, i'm enjoying it. unfortunately, that's just about how far i went with the charger, i couldn't get myself to fix it because there's a loose wire and i don't know where to attach it (it might explode lol).

that's why i just bought a new one a while ago. happy.

iii. it's my first time to cook longanisa. i didn't know you just need water to cook it. nyaha

iv. currently listening to - code geass OST :) ooooh memories!

merry christmas! :)

heheheeeeey!!

it's almost christmas!! haha what a stupid remark.
i just wanted to blog, that's all. hehehehe

i. "congratulations! you did it again"
T___T; my 3rd week of relisting the item i was selling at ebay. anyway... it's an (a?) HP laptop bag. in case you're interested here's the link: click!

ii. i thought we're never gonna hold a christmas party for this year! yehey at red box! :) lol that actually brings me to a financial dilemma hehehe but don't worry, i've already devised a way to get some money before the year ends

iii. LOL my sister and i freakin asked our parents for a CHRISTMAS BONUS. and with that, we get a thousand bucks each. lolololol. tell me i'm evil but in the name of not-getting-totally-broke-this-xmas, i shall do that which is more convinient.

iv. more so, we're going to be maid-less from tomorrow till january 1st. ate wilma is going on a christmas break. know what that means? i have to wash the dishes till the end of the year. my sister and i made a compromise already, i do all the dishwashing and kitchen stuff and she does the laundry and yadda yadda. lol i'll drop off the senorita facade for now. XD my uncle is going to mock me for this. and we're just gonna laugh it off till the year ends. hahahaha

and because i'm really evil, i demanded a salary from my parents. bwahahaha. principle of equivalent trade? aaaayt!

v. full metal alchemist is one heck of a great series! oooh i'm such a late bloomer i never tried watching it before because i thought it would suck. i would always look at the character designs first before i decide to watch it...well, first step would be searching for the bishounen... the rest is history. but now...well, things change! i used to limit myself to romance anime series and those which are relatively easy to comprehend, i love the highschool setting -- no AU or seemingly complicated plots.

again, that was before... :) right now i enjoy almost all types of series because i get to learn a lot from them! like with Full Metal Alchemist. one of the greatest series i've watched, it appeals a lot to the complex nature of philosophy and reality. i was heavily struck by the different morals each episode portrays. :)

di pa ko tapos... i'll probably finish it before this week ends. hehe :D

vi. oo nga pala, i made a tray of mango float for my family. yeheeey, they liked it! i liked it too! haha XD

biofit

hey! i'm getting frustrated here!

5 days ago, i bought biofit slimming tea... 5 days later, i still feel nothing! as in noooothing adverse in my stomach! i'm not constipated or anything, i still do regular trips to the bathroom. pero noooo... i'm not feeling any stomachache at all! is this good or bad? is this a fraud? a sign of pagiging walang bisa? or baka naman immune na ko e first time ko palang uminom nun. pwede ba yun. i checked the teabag, sabi BIOFITEA. magkaiba ba yun sa BIOFIT TEA? hahaha e sa mercury ko naman yun binili.

e all the reviews i read about it says na pupupu ka tlga and you'll feel like turning the CR into your home. but why is it not working on meeeeee???

lol. maybe i'm immune na nga. after all, my eating habits (at least here at home) always include one or two yucky halamang gamots na i've learned to tolerate over time because of my organic-freak of a mother. i didn't know na ganun ka diverse ang backyard namin to think it's QC soil, it's not supposed to be capable of supporting especially weird plants. should i thank her for that? lol

or should i try a stronger laxative... like yung biguerlai? (bigger lie daw sabi ni yndi! haha panalo)

eh sa gusto ko pumayat eh. T_T;

almost positive client.

i. i've been talking (through text) to this person who wants to get hold of the item i'm selling at ebay. however, he proposed a swap thing, which i'm not really fond of since i need the cash more and i might not get the right value for the item i'm going to resell when i swap my item with his'. anyway, i've already made a polite decline to his (i presume it's a he with the way he texts) offer.

wooh. i need more lessons with marketing. i've always wanted to be a businesswoman someday, not a crap engineer or anything as hideous. hehehehe so with what just happened, i need to be more patient. and i need lots of it since i already limited my prospect clients within QC and Metro Manila to eliminate the meet-up hassles. hehehe

more more more...

ii. i'm halfway through How To Find Your One True Love by Bo Sanchez. lol i'm liking it becausue i get to realize a lot things... like i'm too picky and i don't date because i thought there's only one type of dating -- the romantic kind. i totally missed out on the 'friendly date' thing. haha i don't even know what a date means.

lol well it doesn't really change anything hahaha. :)

it was cool though, a self-help book dedicated to old singles made by a guy. heck, who would've thought.

iii. somehow, i think the slimming tea is working. lol, but i'm not getting the stomach aches though.

iv. last night we watched My Only U on big screeeeen! yeaaaah! big screen = projector in an air-con(ed) room. hehe terai bought a couple of tagalog dvds for my mom and we watched it altogether. it was so funny and sad at the same time, lol i cried. :)

i ♥ vhong navarro
and the toni-vhong loveteam too XD

v. oh by the way, after church we went grocery shopping at the SM Annex because we wanted to try out this Save More market in hopes of actually saving more money. yun pala, it's still part of SM Supermarket. kaya pala Save More kasi SM. whatever.

then we took our time to explore the annex, which is SM's newest shopping building. heck, like they could invest more on it. next time there's be an Annex 2, Annex 3 and so on. they just keep on expanding like heeeeell! but it's good naman haha.

while strolling we were approached by this super handsome Jewish guy named Maor, trying to sell his beauty products called Holy Land/Minus 417 (actually from afar pa lang napansin ko na sya, bonus na lng na inapproach nya kami hehehe). their products came from Israel pa daw and their main components came from the Dead Sea, which is 417 meters deep below sea surface... hence the title, O diba cool. hehe he's not gay though lol why am i suddenly talking about his sexuality. grabe, and gwapo eh. kaso maliit hehehehe, his eyes were so deep, his lashes so long....he's just soo... ewan ko, Jew. XP hehe

and theeeeeen, someone approached me too, she asked me "taga holy ka?" (because i was wearing our school jacket. and i said yes. she asked for my batch, i said 06...i asked for hers sabi nya 08.

napa-shet ako (inwardly) becuase i thought she was older that i am. then she starts asking if i know mimi delos reyes... e shempre ano bang alam ko sa lower batches diba? when she asks for my batchmates, so i mentioned some of my friends' names blah blah blah.

yun pala, 03 sya... hehe 08 sya grumaduate from college hehehe. ok that clears it. hehehe and she works from that Holy Land. haha

di kami bumili. hehe ang mahal kaya! XP gusto ko lang tingnan ni Mr. Jewish guy. lol

nature-trip: check

woa! natupad agad!
lol. remember i mentioned in my last entry that i wanted go nature tripping (plus swimming and blaah) this break? it just came true!

we went for a picnic at la mesa ecopark awhile ago to celebrate my auntie's birthday (which was two days ago). it was reaaallly fun! it's only my second time there and i've never done any in depth exploration so my sister and i took our chances to, well, exploooore! although i kinda hated it because she wants to 'experience' basically everything (stupid things involved) like walking on a muddy slope uphill when there's a paved staircase available, sitting on the dirtiest thing with the ugliest view, taking the scariest trails... well it's part of her nature you know, to piss me off. and i also hate it because it makes me look so maarte when in fact, i'm not! i mean, yeah... ok, i'm being maarte but her idea of adventure is just so stupid. it's not how i wanted to explore ecopark. but i still did, with her, and hell did i endure it with all the impracticalities she imposed. watdaheck.

i also realized something while with her. she's more adventurous than i am, and she fears lesser things than i do. and it also dawned on me that it's not because of her ignorance that i sometimes hate her, it's because of her innocence. i'm not trying to make things lighter you know. i love my sister, my ate, my terai... i'm just being a regular 'older' sister. and about the 'innocence' thing, i think i'm too 'impure' (for a lack of a better term) to understand how it's like being innocent. most of the times i'm ignorant.

makes me want to philosophize the two terms because it's confusing me now. T_T

later!

new banner :)


i made a new header. it's actually a recycled one i used in one of my previous blogs. :) it features a certain artwork of mine from way way back. just that... :) i'm supposed to do ' a series of unfortunate banners' entry instead of this to feature the 2 other banners i made just now that were turned down. hahaha i tend to create a lot of experimental banner first before i officially publish it. so there, that's probably the 'winning' banner for the meantime. XP

i'm really bored. i wish i had gone to our org's christmas party instead. either way, i'm going to end up broke so why not be temporarily poor and happy? darn, i wasn't able to think that much. i was too excited to go home. i didn't consider that after 3 hours of travel, the thrill will eventually die down. so much for this week.

i'm looking forward to swimming, biking and some nature-tripping over the break. i don't know how, i don't know where.

on some other note, something's telling me that i should go learn multiply-layout making. it's just css right? roight.

and my parents, they want me to enroll in this english proficiency workshop by TESDA. sounds cool, i want to, but i don't have time. sucks because IT'S FREE. and it's TESDA, i think it's a government subsidized vocational school so after training we get TESDA accreditations that's going to be additional credentials for us. tempting, man! i've always been dreaming of attending vocational lessons for free (or for a low cost).

my sister's gooooone. no, not poof gone but she's not here because she went back to los banos to get her nasal spray. >__>; it's a thousand+ worth of medicine so i didn't have qualms with her going back... i usually hate her for forgetting things then going back to get it, spending approximately 260 worth of travel money. but i forgive here anyway. hehe i love my terai.

JC Tiuseco of Survivor Philippines looks waaay hotter as a castaway, with the untrimmed hair, mustache and tanned skin. right now, he looks just hot. but i still like him. :)
